Jie Chen poured a bowl of water for the master, and after saluting, he also sat across from him to translate the scriptures.
However, he couldn't calm down a little bit because of his anger. He asked, "Didn't the master say that Mr. Bai and the others might want to suggest that Fotian pay taxes? Why didn't the master remind the uncle?"
Zhiren stopped writing and said: "They have this idea, but it may not be possible."
He smiled and said: "Actually, this method is good, but unfortunately there are many Buddhist temples in the world, and since ancient times, monks have been outside the world of mortals, so I am afraid that this method cannot be done."
Avoid anger: "Master agrees with this method?"
Zhiren sighed and said, "I don't agree. Your uncle is right in one point. We need more time to study Buddhism, but he is wrong again. The expansion of Buddhist temples is not beneficial to the people."
He said: "This method may not be possible, but at least it will restrain the greedy Buddhist temple."
Obviously, he also thinks Huguo Temple is too greedy.
Zhiren took off the Buddhist beads wrapped around his wrist, and slowly slid them, recited scriptures silently in his heart, and said after a while: "Keep away from anger, my teacher is translating the "Miaofa Lotus Sutra" recently, and found that some scriptures are more readable than others. The more I don't understand, so I want to go to the Western Regions to worship Buddha and seek scriptures, would you like to go with me as a teacher?"
Jie Chen said: "The apprentice is willing, but I'm afraid the uncle will not let it go."
Zhiren said: "Tao is the only one in the world. To promote Buddhism, you must have the correct Buddhism to promote it. I will convince him."
Monk Zhiren blinked at Jie Chen suddenly, and said with a smile: "Even if we can't be persuaded, we still have other ways to leave, don't we?"
Quit anger: "... yes!"
Shinobu smiled in satisfaction.
"Master, will they read the scriptures you gave them?"
"You can watch it, or you can't watch it."
"But there is a note written by you on it. If they don't read it, wouldn't it be a pearl covered in dust?"
Zhiren said indifferently: "That's just my superficial knowledge, it's not a bright pearl, how can it be dusty?"
He also said: "They are not people who waste their time. They will read other books and do other things even if they don't read Buddhist scriptures. That's enough. Spread the Dharma and follow the fate. You can't be too demanding like your uncle."
Quit anger and respond.
At this time, Man Bao, who returned home, opened the three Buddhist scriptures casually while waiting for the juniors to set up pens, inks, papers and inkstones.
What she found was the Shurangama Sutra, and she just scanned a dozen or so lines down. Wisdom."
Bai Shan stretched out his hand to take it over and looked at it, but he didn't think it was Zhishen's, he wondered: "Could it be that people don't respect their appearance, and we misunderstood him?"
Bai Erlang: "That's impossible. Don't look at his benevolent appearance, he just took advantage of his appearance. In fact, I think he is as irritable as me."
Bai Er felt so, so it must be.
Man Bao tsk-tsk said: "Everyone says that his writing is like his own person, if he is not a different kind of non-literal person, then this Buddhist scripture should be given by someone else."
Bai Shan turned a page back, "But he was right. The Shurangama Sutra looks good. You can take a look later when you have time."
Bai Erlang leaned forward and asked, "Do you want to convert to Buddhism?"
Bai Shan pushed his head away, "You are the one who wants to convert to Buddhism."
He dropped the book in his hand, spread out a blank sheet of paper in front of him, and asked, "Who will write this book?"
Man Bao and Bai Erlang immediately studied the ink one by one, handed the pen to the other, and said with flattering smiles: "You write, you write."
Bai Shan reached out to take the pen, and said: "I write as I write, and Man Bao will help me to correct it later, and you can copy it later, Bai Er."
Bai Er said that there is no problem, that is, "Whose book should I use?"
Bai Shan said: "Use our Bai Zhe."
He said: "This kind of thing is too hateful. It is not appropriate for Man Baolai to do it. I guess it will be impossible to do it in all likelihood, but it can be a wake-up call for the imperial court, and it can also make Buddhist temples and Taoist temples all over the world, and even the world. It is very offensive to the gentry to restrain themselves."
"We are still only students of Chongwenguan, our position is small, and the booklets we read have little influence. Even if someone has a grudge, it won't be for a long time."
"That's not necessarily the case," Bai Erlang said, "You're also famous, I'm better, I'm not as famous as you, and I'm still a son-in-law, so I should be more likable than you."
Man Bao immediately said: "From then on, if you are rejected by Buddhist temples and Taoist temples in the world, we will go in and burn incense for you."
Bai Shan: ...
This was just a joke, since it was the idea of the three of them, and the three of them shared the idea, and they all participated in it, so naturally they signed it together.
However, Bai Shan believed that Zhezi himself contributed the most, so he insisted on ranking first.
Man Bao and Bai Erlang never argued with him about this kind of hatred, and just let him be polite.
After Bai Shan glanced at them, he wrote his name on the back of the notebook that Bai Erlang had copied, and then handed the pen to Bai Erlang.
Bai Erlang, who just wanted to be ranked third, was stunned for a moment, then took the pen to write his name, and then said: "Actually, I heard that the second place is the easiest to be ignored."
Bai Shan: "Shut up, you."
If it wasn't for Man Bao's insistence on sharing their troubles, he wouldn't really want her to sign this booklet.
After writing the scriptures, the sky was already full of sunshine outside, Bai Shan blew on the ink, dried the ink, and put it away on the table, "Go back to the palace early tomorrow morning, have you guys figured out how to deal with it?"
It was about last night.
What happened last night was neither big nor small, and the emperor definitely wanted to ask questions.
Man Bao and Bai Erlang nodded together, "Don't worry, last night I dreamed that I was going to say something."
Man Bao said: "Tomorrow morning, my parents and the others will set off, and we will enter the palace after sending them off."
Then I would have to get up before dawn, Master Bai and his wife also followed, and Bai Erlang was going to send it off, so he asked, "Send it to the gate of the city?"
"What do you think, just deliver it to the gate. When they get in the car, we will ride into the palace."
The discussion was very good, but in the end, Man Bao had no chance to see them off, and only had dinner in the evening, and someone from the palace urgently announced her into the palace.
Man Bao and the others were taken aback, their first thought was that Princess Mingda and the others would not let the word slip, the emperor was furious, and wanted to take her into the palace to teach her a lesson, right
Bai Shan was also worried about this, so he took a step forward and wanted to bribe the servant to inquire about the news. Upon hearing the news, Mrs. Liu who came over urgently gave him a look and asked the servant, "Elder-in-law, do you want to bring a medicine box?"
"Of course I have to bring it. Doctor Zhou should hurry up. The car is already waiting outside."
Bai Shan's and the others' hearts fell instantly, and then lifted up slightly.
Zhou Lijun has already turned around and ran quickly, "Sister-in-law, I'll help you carry the medicine box."
So Man Bao inquired with the servant, "Who is the doctor for?"
The servant didn't hide it either, "It's the Empress Dowager."
But there are too many, there is no sentence, no matter how Man Bao asks, he dare not go into details, and Man Bao will not force it when he sees it.
But before she left, she still nodded to Bai Shan, Mr. Zhuang, and Mrs. Liu, keeping everything in silence.
